Travel Tip #7: Advice from a Purple Hippo
Rainy days
While traveling you are likely to experience some dreary weather.
This bunny is grumpy, don’t be the grumpy bunny
Rainy days can make even the most joyful of travelers a little grumpy. But don’t worry, there is plenty to do while you wait out the weather!
Here are five rainy day activities that are sure to brighten your mood:
#1 Build yourself a fort or castle.
This is a great opportunity to do something useful with all the new architectural information that you picked up while viewing those historic castles, see Travel Tip #6.
#2 Play a game of Jenga.
Jenga
Play Jenga alone or with a group of friends, it’s always a good time.
Easy does it…
Careful, careful now!
Quick, somebody catch it!
Oh bother.
#3 Visit the local bar and join in the pub quiz.
Pub quizzes are great for learning about different cultures and making new buddies, be sure to try the crisps.
#4 Go to the local shops
#5 Go out for cream tea.
Never mind that there is no tea in the picture, there are more important things to consume!

I must say…I’ve never played Jenga. Definitely looks interesting. Will have to try it. Thanks for the tip.
It is a pretty fun game, we enjoyed a few rounds while it was raining.
Played Jenga at a mountain hutte in Iceland with people from Norway, Israel, UK, Switzerland, Italy and Greece. A wonderful experience, and great fun!
Yeah, it is great because language is not a huge part of the game.
Love it – I travelled with a purple bear recently and wrote a post about it, so I feel an affinity with your purple hippo 🙂
Thanks, I had to buy a purse that could hold my wallet, a water bottle, and the hippo. The sales woman at the store thought I was nuts.
